Your long braid was invented by the Himba people
Make her hair into a long braid she said!
What the fluff, here in Scotland braid means broad. What did she mean make her hair into a long broad.
A broad bean, they are long right enough.
But no, turns out she means make her hair in pleats of long hair.
You know like the Native Americans started.
Excuse me madam, they did not.
Oh yes they did.
Oh no they didn't!
Then say who did?
The Africans.
The Africans yes.
Fluff off.
It's true
Your long braid was invented by the Himba people in Namibia!
Ask Alexa if you don't believe me!
Alexa...what did the Himba people invent?

Excellent thanks guys😁
Now this was really informative and I plan to read more about it.
On a lighter note uncle T I haven’t seen you use the #dreemerforlife hashtag, ain’t you a dreemer?😂😂😂
Yeah they are a fascinating tribe with some amazing traditions.
lol I never have, I just pop down #dreemer when I want to say something.
So I have been wondering how you keep tabs on so many Hiveans here on Hive and I am happy for a change I noticed something about you that was correct!
Well I am part of guild in dreemport and I have a good memory so keeping tabs is easy enough, you soon get to know Hivians that engage back, especially on our own posts like you do IB. It is human instinct to gravitate towards the ones that reciprocate, don't you think?
You are happy then so am I happy! Now what did you notice that was correct 😎
Ohhhhhhh I see and this makes a lot of sense.
That you don’t use the #dreemerforlife tag😂
hehe you are a clever lady!
Thank you good Sire🥰

That's an interesting one, I didn't know braids originated from Namibia. Asking Alexa, isn't that an AI?
I came through dreemport
Yeah it is a small device and is my source of music.
This is my first time hearing about the origin of long braids and the Namibia people so, definitely I learnt something new 🤗.
Thanks for sharing.
#Dreemerforlife.
Yeah they are a fascinating tribe Nkem 😁
The Himba people? Honestly, there are so many African tribes that I haven't heard of before. Now I finally know where "braids" originated from.
There are so many tribes wongi and sometimes that is the cause of so much strife.
But the Himba are a fascinating tribe!
I like the Pon with the tribes and strife😅
I should add "visit Himba tribe" to my bucket list.
Have you been there before?
This is another whole interesting knowledge, thanks for sharing through your story.

My pleasure, I love learning new things!
